Cotswold Canals Restoration - The story so far

In 1972 the Stroudwater Canal Society (now the Cotswold
Canals Trust) was formed with the aim of restoring the Stroudwater Navigation and
the Thames & Severn Canal to full navigation.

Since that time the Trust, often assisted by other voluntary
groups, has worked to conserve & restore
sections and structures on both canals, and to ensure that new road bridges have been constructed
when new roads have been built.

In addition, significant effort has been spent to prevent further
loss of the through route, or significant canal structures.
